Attorneys are requesting a probe into abuses they say the family faced in U.S. detention and urging immigration authorities to grant humanitarian parole to the undocumented parents.

Summary

A family with four U.S. citizen children was deported to Mexico last month, including a 10-year-old girl recovering from brain surgery.

The Texas Civil Rights Project filed a complaint alleging CBP denied medical care to the girl and detained U.S. citizen children “in deplorable conditions” before removing them to Mexico “where their lives are in peril.”

The parents, who were seeking T visas as human trafficking victims, were arrested at an immigration checkpoint while traveling for their daughter’s medical care.

Border czar Tom Homan has stated “families can be deported together” regardless of citizenship status.

    Homan said it would be up to the parents to decide whether to depart the U.S. together or leave their children behind.
